I was curious if anyone had a wedding in Las Vegas? If so please share your experience in general. Thanks!

No, to the question.

Brit is beautiful!

I did. I got married at the RIO last year. It only cost about 2grand. That included 2 nights in a huge honeymoon suite, wedding chappel, wedding cake, flowers,music and catered food, and about 50 photos.
When I watch that silly show Bridezillas and see people spending 60grand on a wedding, I can't believe it. That money will be much better spent on a downpayment to a home.

I want one!

I was maid of honor in a wedding in las vegas. It was great fun. Small, simple ceremony in the tropical bird avaiary at the Flamingo. It was attended by maybe 30 people. Then, they had a separate reception at home later for extended family and friends.

That is awesome! How many guests did you have? That sounds amazing! How far in advance did you have to plan? Just curious...Sorry to pry just think that it is awesome!

Cool. How close do they live to LV?

JasonStar said:

Minneapolis. So not close at all.

We planned it 1 month in advance. All the planning was done over the phone. The chappel accomodated thirty guests. The wedding package was actually only 1,200. Ours cost more because we added food, which is optional. Check the RIO website. There are packages that are even cheaper. There is a section specifically for weddings. Oh yeah, you will also get a wedding coordinator to set everything up for you.

Damn. So where did all the guests stay?

JasonStar said:

Wherever they wanted. lol. I think that's the great thing about vegas, cause it's a really cheap destination. I don't think any one of us spent more than $350 for airfare and hotel both for about a 4 day stay.

That would be so cool

I really want to visit Vegas one day.
